Two Facts – The Second

Two facts (not preference and opinion like most of politics) must forevermore affect the votes of those who still have a heart and soul.  The first is that abortion is murder.  The second is that any support of the Democratic Party (which endorses the murder of the unborn as part of its platform) makes one an accessory to murder and guilty as well.  The first fact is proven here:

Two Facts – The First

The second fact:

Supporting the Democratic Party that endorses the murder of the unborn as part of its platform makes one an accessory to murder and guilty of murder as well.

One of the planks in the platform of the Democratic Party wholeheartedly supports the right to abortion.  The following is from their 2012 party platform:

“The Democratic Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v.
Wade and a woman’s right to make decisions regarding her preg-
nancy, including a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay.
We oppose any and all efforts to weaken or undermine that right.
Abortion is an intensely personal decision between a woman, her
family, her doctor, and her clergy; there is no place for politicians or
government to get in the way. We also recognize that health care and
education help reduce the number of unintended pregnancies and
thereby also reduce the need for abortions. We strongly and un-
equivocally support a woman’s decision to have a child by providing
affordable health care and ensuring the availability of and access to
programs that help women during pregnancy and after the birth of a
child, including caring adoption programs.”1

To support the Democratic Party with contributions, or just by one’s vote makes one an accessory to murder.

……….“Aiding and abetting in a murder means that you were an accessory
……….to the crime. While you may not have been part of the actual crime,
……….you had knowledge of the crime before or after it was committed, you
……….may have assisted in it commission through advice, actions, or
……….financial support.”2

……….“A person who aids and abets stands to be sentenced with the same
……….punishment as the actual perpetrator under federal law, and many
……….states follow the same guideline.”3

Many religious people who are against abortion still vote for the Democratic Party.  In the 1996 presidential election, 43% of evangelicals voted for Bill Clinton.4  In the 2016 presidential election, 45% of Catholics voted for Hillary Clinton.5  If all the religious who are against abortion would vote against the Democratic Party because of the murder of the unborn, more pro-life congressmen would be elected and no pro-choice presidents would be elected.  The supreme court would have fewer liberals on it, increasing chances that Roe v. Wade would be overturned.  If religious voters voted against the Democratic Party for that single reason, they would influence others.  Eventually, an amendment to ban abortion would be passed.  At the moment, however, a person who is somewhat on the fence about abortion might look at all the religious people who don’t mind voting for it and think that it is all right for them to vote for it, too.  Voting for the Democratic Party helps sustain the holocaust against the unborn.  If a man drives the vehicle when a second man goes into the liquor store and murders the clerk, the first is an accessory to murder.  If a voter drives the political vehicle in which abortion murder is the plan, he’s an accessory to murder as well.  Only politics can end the murder of the unborn.  One either supports it and continues it with his vote or helps to ban it by voting for the only party that would end it.

As shown previously, our government’s laws mean that one who supports a murder is an accessory to murder, to be sentenced with the same punishment as the murder because he himself is guilty of it.  God’s law is the same.

……….“Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of
……….Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he
……….has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does
……….not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do
……….not give him a greeting; 11 for the one who gives him a greeting
……….participates in his evil deeds.” (II John 9,10)

In the first century, a Christian traveler was often invited into the home of another Christian to stay.  The apostle John said that if one helps a false teacher in this way, or even gives him a greeting (such as “God be with you”), he participates in his evil deeds.  Those who support the cause of candidates favoring abortion participate in the evil of abortion and are accessories to murder.

   The religious in this country who oppose abortion and then vote for the Democratic Party because of some trivial reason (all is trivial compared to murder, opinions versus fact) are guilty of hypocrisy, something Jesus roundly condemned when He saw it in the Pharisees (Matt.23).  They are guilty of saying and not doing.  Jesus said this of the Pharisees before repeatedly calling them hypocrites, “  therefore all that they tell you, do and observe, but do not do according to their deeds; for they say things and do not do them” (Matt.23:3).  Many say they are against abortion and then act in such a way that supports and sustains it.  They say things, but do not do.

The Babylonians destroyed the temple in Jerusalem and killed, or took into captivity, those in Judah.  Israel in the north had already been destroyed and taken into captivity by Assyria.  When their captivity was over, some who remained came back to Jerusalem and settled again.  God spoke to them through the prophet Haggai, saying, “Is it time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses while this house lies desolate?” (Haggai 1:4).  They had built their houses and were comfortable in them while the temple had not been rebuilt.  And, in their comfort, they said, “The time has not come, even the time for the house of the Lord to be rebuilt” (Haggai 1:2).  They put themselves first and God second and God was not blessing them.  Many who are against abortion have been comfortable in their own houses and have been mostly passive while the slaughter of the unborn goes on and on.

The time has come to arise and fight, and stop the holocaust instead of being an accessory to murder and voting for the Democratic Party.

Two Facts – The First

  Much of politics is preference and opinion, with one person giving weight to one set of arguments while another accepts the opposing set of arguments.  In the 2016 presidential election, some were more offended by what Donald Trump said and did than what Hillary Clinton said and did.  On the other side, some were more negative about Clinton’s words and acts than Trump’s.  Some liked the idea of reducing government regulations; some wanted all the regulations kept and desired even more.  Some see the value in laying a pipeline; some see the problems.

   Out of all the different issues, two facts (not preference and opinion) must forevermore affect the votes of those who still have a heart and soul.  The first is that abortion is murder and the second is that any support of the Democratic Party that endorses the murder of the unborn as part of its platform is an accessory to murder and guilty as well.

   The first fact:

   At conception, the fertilization of an egg by a sperm results in a new human life, a unique individual. That’s a scientific and medical fact.  Even many abortionists agree that abortion is killing, murder, the taking of a human life.

   Dr. Jerome LeJeune, who was a pediatrician and professor of genetics in Paris, testified before a Congressional subcommittee, saying, “after fertilization has taken place a new human being has come into being” and that this “is no longer a matter of taste or opinion,” and “not a metaphysical contention, it is plain experimental evidence…. Each individual has a very neat beginning, at conception.” 1

   Moore and Persaud, in their book on embryology, wrote, “A zygote is the beginning of a new human being (i.e., an embryo)…. his highly specialized, totipotent cell marks the beginning of each of us as a unique individual.”2

    In an article for the California Medical Association, Dr. Malcom Watts wrote, “…it has been necessary to separate the idea of abortion from the idea of killing, which continues to be socially abhorrent. The result has been a curious avoidance of the scientific fact, which everyone really knows, that human life begins at conception and is continuous until death.”3  The source where this was found says it was a pro-abortion piece.

    Dr. Bertran Wainer, an abortionist who founded an abortion clinic said, “Abortion is killing. Nobody can argue with that. When the fetus is inside the uterus it is alive and when the pregnancy terminated it is dead – that by any definition is killing. … I think abortion is the destruction of something which is potentially irreplaceable, human and of great value, which is the tragedy of abortion. But it is not of greater value than the woman seeking the abortion.”4

   Professor Hymie Gordon of the Mayo Clinic testified before a Senate committed in 1981, saying, “By all the criteria of modern molecular biology, life is present from the moment of conception” and “unequivocally, that the question when life begins is no longer a question for theological or philosophical dispute.  It is an established scientific fact.”  “…it is an established fact that all life, including human life, begins at the moment of conception.”5
      
    W.J. Larsen, in a book about human embryology, wrote, “In this text, we begin our description of the developing human with the formation and differentiation of the male and female sex cells or gametes, which will unite at fertilization to initiate the embryonic development of a new individual.”6

   Carol Everett was the administrator of four abortion clinics and owned two.  She said, “Every woman has these same two questions: First, ‘Is it a baby?’ ‘No’ the counselor assures her. ‘It is a product of conception (or a blood clot, or a piece of tissue)’ Even though these counselors see six week babies daily, with arms, legs and eyes that are closed like newborn puppies, they lie to the women. How many women would have an abortion, if they told them the truth?”7

   In their book on embryology, O’Rahilly and Muller wrote, “Fertilization is an important landmark because, under ordinary circumstances, a new, genetically distinct human organism is thereby formed.”8

   Before the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1981, Dr. Micheline Matthews-Roth of Harvard Medical School testified that a human life begins at conception and supported her testimony by references to more than twenty embryology and medical textbooks.  She said, “It is incorrect to say that biological data cannot be decisive…. It is scientifically correct to say that an individual human life begins at conception.”9

   An abortionist said, “I can now say openly that I do think I am ending a life every time I do an abortion, but I do it as someone who has certain skill which is put at the disposal of a woman who does not want her pregnancy to continue.”10

   Bruce Patten’s textbook on embryology states, “Almost all higher animals start their lives from a single cell, the fertilized ovum (zygote)…. The time of fertilization represents the starting point in the life history, or ontogeny, of the individual.”11

   Notice their words: it is no longer a matter of taste or opinion…scientific fact, which everyone really knows…Abortion is killing. Nobody can argue with that….  …the question when life begins is no longer a question for theological or philosophical dispute.  It is an established scientific fact.  …It is incorrect to say that biological data cannot be decisive.

   Thus, C.W. Kischer, who was a professor of anatomy and human embryology could make the sweeping statement, “Every human embryologist, worldwide, states that the life of the new individual human being begins at fertilization (conception).… We exist as a continuum of human life, which begins at fertilization and continues until death.”12

    What is killed during an abortion is a living, unique human being and is thus murder.
